I just saw that I made two threads instead of one ... hopefully this
email now receives in the correct one. ;)

Hi Keir, Hi Konrad,
thanks for your time.
at first, Keir: I've added the lines to xen boot, attached a new xm
dmesg. until the line "(XEN) HVM1: HVM Loader" all logs were generated
from boot, the logs afterwards from starting/killing the domU-machine.
also attached a dmesg from dom0. My config is still xen-4.1-amd64 with
dom0 debian squeeze kernel i686.
my hvm domain config is also attached here.
I am sure that to this domU I've configured 512MB ram, my dom0 is
limited to 1024MB ram, so there should be no bottleneck (host with
2048MB ram, if I do not limit dom0 memory with xen I can allocate there
about 1800MB). nevertheless the issue also occurs with a 256MB ram domU.
Konrad, I do not know if this is happening also to other machines, first
time for me with xen, have never tried or seen on other hardware - or do
you mean other domUs on my host? if last then yes, this happens if I use
HVM, as soon as I try paravirt it works flawless. I have tried about 10
or 15 different configurations of HVM domUs, always the same problem.
I ran your code, the output is attached. also xen ran this time with
loglvl=all.
If I was running only dom0 the first 4 lines in the output of your code
always repeated, the two big output blocks with 8 lines were generated
in the about 15 to 20 seconds stucking, afterwards the 4 lines like on
beginning repeated again.
hopefully this helps, just contact me if you need more information.
Alois

Hello Keir,
thanks for your idea.
Have installed xen 4.1 amd64 packages, boots correctly but sadly the
same issue.
I've attached xm dmesg and dmesg from dom0 (and also attached this time
missing logs from my last mail)
Thanks in advance for further hints.
The logs don't show much, except that dom0 seems to be losing interrupts
after the HVM guest starts. Do you get more from 'xm dmesg' if you boot Xen
with the extra boot parameters "loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all"? What is your
HVM domain config?
Keir, didn't we have a problem with hvmloader where it would call
populate_physmap
and take a very long time when moving the PFNs around? I can't remember the
details though :-(
